For the first time in 10 years, an All-American will be among those highlighted when the 14th annual Patriot-News Big 11 girls' soccer team is revealed in Sunday's editions.

That All-American -- Lower Dauphin's wonderfully talented Lauren Alwine -- will be making her third consecutive appearance on the Big 11. Eventually headed for the University of Virginia -- she'll make another European run with the U.S. under-18 National Team later this month -- Alwine is the first All-American named to the Big 11 since former Red Land midfield great Jamie Miller wrapped up her terrific career in 1998.

Four members of Central Dauphin's state championship club also appear with the first unit, including three standouts who were profiled a year ago. The first Harrisburg-area girls program to nail down state gold, the Rams won their first PIAA spring Class AAA title in 2007.

Four other schools also are represented on the Big 11's first team, which everyone will find in Sunday's editions of The Patriot-News. Enjoy.
